Manch Anime

Good morning everyone,

This is an announcement we never expected to make. In our seven years of organizing events, we have never had to postpone a show. However, over the past week, two members of our team have experienced serious personal family matters that require their full attention. As a result, we are unable to move forward with the June event in the way that our attendees, vendors, and guests deserve.

After many difficult discussions, we have made the decision to postpone the June show.

We are currently working closely with the venue and our guests to secure new dates later this year, and we will share those details with everyone as soon as they are finalized.

For those who have already purchased tickets, your tickets will automatically remain valid for the rescheduled dates. If you are unable to attend once the new dates are announced, we will work with the ticketing company to assist with refunds.

We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience and appreciate your understanding and support during this time. Our priority has always been delivering the best possible experience for our community, and postponing the event is the best way for us to ensure we can do that properly.

Thank you all for your patience, kindness, and continued support.
